Saturn - 2nd time lucky 23rd Nov

Hi

Here is my 2nd attempt of the 2006 Saturn season. I did an all nighter trying to get my auto guiding rig set up, but was somewhat thwarted by intermittent clouds that kept rolling in, preventing me from really getting stuck into auto guiding.

So, grabbed some nice ccd images of the trapezium and waited until Saturn showed his face. Then, in the incoming twilight I managed to grab a few avi’s when the seeing suddenly turned quite good, with spells of 7 to 8/10.

Celestron C9.25, Televue x2.5 Powermate, Philips ToUcam 840K.
Acquired in K3CCDTools. Processed in Registax. Brisbane, Australia, 23rd November 2006.

1/25 sec, 5fps, Gamma 30%, Gain 60%. 115 frames from 924. 4:26am AEST (GMT+10).

1/25 sec, 5fps, Gamma 30%, Gain 50%. 451 frames from 1001. 4:15am AEST (GMT+10).

Cheers

Dennis
